There's not a lot, but a thin dusting of snow has fallen on the higher summits today.
I was rock climbing with a group of students, so while it was still pouring down outside, we made use of the indoor wall. We had a great fun and energetic morning until the sun began to put in an apperance.
We hiked up to the slabs ob Conwy Mountain for some roped climbs. The rock had dried quickly and we were nicely sheltered from the cold northerly.
The sun seemed to be setting really early, as we walked away around 15:30.
It's a lovely walk and worth going up for the views even if you're not rock climbing. It's well marked as it's also part of the North Wales Coastal Path.
On the path, there were an astonishing amount of acorns. At times it was like walking on marbles. Tree Surgeon Matt, later told me that this year is a 'Mast Year' for Oaks and that they produce a bumper crop every so many years. Apparently, they produce a few hundred acorns per square meter on the ground!
